Is there a link to the original article this was copied from?

Was there any mention of which restaurant in the article, or addtional pictures that might help identify it?

I don't know the original source, but it's on a couple of Khmer news sites. http://www.arey-news.com/article/146648

The restaurant is named as ភោជនីយដ្ឋាន ដើមជ្រៃ
Google translates ដើមជ្រៃ as Oak.
Tovnah dictionary translates ជ្រៃ as a kind of fig.

Is there an Oak Restaurant in Kampot.

A banyan tree is a kind of fig, and the Banyan Tree is also a guesthouse on the Tek Chhou in Kampot, with a deck not unlike the one pictured in the photo in the OP.

I reckon you are probably right. Here's a couple of pics from Tripadvisor of The Banyan Tree Kampot - notice the black, cube chairs.

NGO hipster girls duking it out on the dance floor with local women in the heart of Cambodia's upriver haven for druggies. I used to go to Martini's for this kind of stuff. Stay classy Kampot!
